Has anyone installed these on the LCI X5MC yet?
I've heard the LCI comfort setting is much better and curious how these coilovers effect it. Reading reviews on the pre LCI and seeing how it improved, I'd assume it would do the same for the LCI. |

Unfortunately, no pictures since the car was halfway getting wrapped. So missing fender flare, diffuser, etc. It still gives you a comfortable ride. Does not reduce the ride quality.

Looking to swap factory springs on a 2024 X5 M Competition for the MSS urban spring kit. Can anyone please advise if this brand/kit is any good? What will be your score? Does it really improve ride comfort? The X5 M Comp suspension is unbereable as it comes from the factory. Way too harsh / excessively. Have had 3 teack suspension vehicles and none was at this harshness level. Please share your thoughts/reviews and let me know if the cost of this is worth it? Looking at $3K overall cost ($1.4K MSS kit, $1K labor, $350 Alignment, + TAX). Please share your thoughts if this is a good move at all. Will hate if I spend this much money and the result is vague/minimum

All the "M" cars I've owned are tuned to handle and thus have a stiffer suspension setup/geometry. It's what makes them "M" cars. Just saying... |

Have a full thread of explanation on what happened to me. Of course I did my research and test drove it aswell. This is my 4th BMW, so I know what Im talking about here.
Posting the comment of the money thing and just wanting the more expensive car is lame on your end. People come to this forums to find solutions to complex tech issues/challenges so you can determine an action plan. Your answer just shows how quick to judgment, lack of common sense and biased you are. Feel sorry for you PacShakur |

I have had them installed for a couple weeks. Car rides, handles and feels great so far. My alignment was near perfect with this setup. "Regular" an arms will leave you with a little negative camber and the m arms will leave the negative 2 degrees of camber. Just FWIW |

Well, I was going to get Dinan springs and bump stops but I don't want to be that low. I came to the conclusion that if I wanted it maxed out low, I would have bought another car. That being said, I plan to drop it about 3/4" to 1" with MSS.
Will it go back to stock alignment with the drop I'm wanting vs the full drop like most are doing and replacing the arms? |

The front, may need UCA. But, not 100% sure since I never done 3/4 or 1 drop. All my customers with MSS and KW HAS wants full drop. And both need UCA if you want to get the front tires to last longer.

How involved is swapping the upper control arm on this car? The outer connection point is right there but not sure about the inner one. Right now i'm blowing through my front tires pretty much every summer at 5-600 each tire. Its just the inner edge that goes bold while the rest of the tire has plenty of meat left.

The forward nuts need to be held with wrench, and easier with fender liner removed. The rear nuts has its holder where it will stay in place. Here is my XMs alignment with G05 UCA at 1.75 drop.

Hi i found this on bimmerworld
https://www.bimmerworld.com/Front-Ri...109504616.html Anyone has info if it is gonna fix the camber issue? i want mine lowered with very close to stock camber. btw.I have an order for x6 m lci.First time i will own Bmw.Currently driving an RSQ8 which i am happy with but new x5/x6 m are so beautiful.As i am doing research for mods i saw the lowering tire wear issue,also the locked computer problem,saw a video on eu x5 m lci and the sound was terrible.Also have to order ceramic brakes.at least at the end it should be a very nice ride despite it will cost a fortune with all the mods i will do. |

What was the front camber reading before the UCA? I am sure it wasn't -1.24 and -1.45 correct?

I've spent hours reading all of this, great stuff! I'm awaiting delivery on a LCI X5M and still trying to decide between the MSS or KW kits. At the very least I want to get rid of the terrible wheel gap but I don't want it to be any more harsh than stock. I read one post that says MSS is smoother and then I read another that KW is, which one is it haha?!

I have had both the MSS HAS and H&R VTF Adjustable Springs and I like the H&R a smidge better. But again, splitting hairs there. |
